Port Vale assistant boss Lee Nogan believes natural ability and learning from Tom Pope will help Ricky Miller be a success for the Valiants.

The 29-year-old striker furthered his case for a return to the starting line up at home to Northampton on Saturday when he did well as a second-half substitute in last weekend's 1-1 draw at Forest Green.

The summer signing from Peterborough hasn't scored since he netted a free kick in the opening-day 3-0 win at home to Cambridge, but, after losing his place, has impressed coming off the bench in the last two games.

Nogan has no doubts about the ability of a striker who scored 42 goals in a season for Dover before moving to Peterborough in the summer of 2017.
